Abstract

Under the conditions where (PhMe2Si)3CSiMe2Cl is inert towards a range of organolithium reagents, the secondary organosilicon chloride (PhMe2Si)3CSiMeHCl reacts with MeLi, EtLi or LiBu^n to give (PhMe2Si)3CSiMe2H, (PhMe2Si)3CSiMeEtH or (PhMe2Si)3CSiMeBu^n H, respectively, but not with LiBu^t. Similar results are obtained from reaction of (Me3Si)3CSiMeHCl with organolithium reagents
